ST. IGNATIUS CHURCH'S DIAMOND JUBILEE
St Ignatius Church will kick off its "Celebration of Light" beginning with a Diamond Jubilee weekend, Oct. 6-8.
The celebration is one event scheduled
throughout die year to highlight the 75th
anniversary celebration of the church, at
its present site. This is the fifth St. Ignatius
Church in San Francisco since 1855. It is
the largest church located on a university
campus in the United States.
The year-long celebration will include a
concert series, a Jesuit lecture series, visiting bishops, lectures and the "Celebration
of Light" — the permanent exterior lighting of the Church, which will commence
on Christmas Eve.
The tradition of the lighting began in
1874 when Fr. Joseph M. Neri, S J., developed and installed a searchlight in the
towerof the Church, then located on Market
Street That was the first permanent electric light in California.
When St Ignatius Church moved to Van
Ness Avenue, the tradition was continued
until the building was destroyed in the
1906 earthquake and fire. A temporary
church site was used until die present
"architectural treasure" was completed on
Aug. 2,1914.
"Through the lighting ofthis monumental Italian renaissance church, a tradition is
restored, beauty is celebrated for the pleasure of all, and the light of faith that brought
Jesuit education and spirituality to San
Francisco in 1849 is honored," said Fr.
Donald Foree, associate prefect

ZBT FIRST NATIONAL FRATERNITY
TO ABOLISH PLEDGING
By Alexander Von Llchtenstln
In an effort to curb what Ronald J. Taylor, M.D., national
vice president of Zeta Beta Tau calls "needless, dangerous or
childish activities which often may result in humiliation, injury,
or death," ZBT this fall was the first national fraternity to abolish
pledging.
USF's Kappa Nu chapter of ZBT banned the
tradition last semester, making it one of the first in
the nation to do so.
"The members of Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity are
committed to establishing fair and equal treatment
for its members. . . That is what our Credo —
Intellectual Awareness, Social Responsibility, Integrity, and Brotherly Love — is all about," Kappa
Nu chapter President Glenn Furlong said.
The change, announced by James E. Greer, Jr.,
national executive vice president is effective nationwide.
"Because of tradition, some brothers didn't like
the ideaat first, but it seems to be working out really
well," explained ZBT Alumnus, Bill Row.

FLYNN RE-ADDRESSES
JESUIT MISSION
By Jason Kenney
President John Lo Schiavo, SJ., announces the creation ofa new position designed to help maintain and promote
USF's Catholic, Jesuit mission.
Fr. James Flynn, S.J., has been named Assistant to the President for University Mission.
His primary function is to "facilitate the collaborative efforts of the USF faculty and staff to
articulate, communicate, and promote USF's
missions and values, as they pertain to every
facet of the University."
Most other Jesuit universities have similar
positions. Fr. Flynn describes himself as a "resource person" for the President and University
community in what he hopes will be "an ongoing review of what it means to be a Jesuit
University."
